DIRTY UNDERWEAR?

CHRISTINA AGUILERA's catwalk experience this week has given her a taste for it. The blonde singer, who wowed the crowd at the Dsquared2 menswear show in Milan, has admitted that she'd like to design her own line of lingerie. "I want to do a really high-end line with beautiful pieces that are a little out of the ordinary, a little edgy and so feminine and so beautiful," she told Women's Wear Daily. Aguilera, dubbed "our little kitten" by the DSquared2 designers Dean and Dan Caten, revealed that she had been in talks with various companies regarding licensing but said that there was no launch date planned as yet. "Nothing is set in stone," she said. "I'm such a collector [of lingerie] and I do so much research on pieces from the Twenties, Thirties, Forties, old pin-up and fetish wear, that eventually I would love to do my own line." And the one-time face of Versace intends to remain on the fashion scene for some time yet. "It's so much fun to be on this side of the spectrum of entertainment and dabble my foot in the fashion world," she went on. "It's such a live, fun, energy. There's nothing like it." (July 1 2004, AM)
